In backkpacks upon the floor
In the chair attached to the desks
In the cabinets
Within the books
"Open me, read me!"
they shout
"Poetry is within us,
Common, let it out!"
Within the walls, it whispers and shouts
In the souls and hearts
of everyone around.
In the words of Shakespear put
into the mouths of
Romeo and Juliet.
In the hello's and goodbye's of
everyday.
In the lockers.
In our friends.
Until we choose to let it out.
Within each of us, all together now,
let's let it out.
